Separate names with a comma.
This just in, Jim Zorn was a bad football coach.
This should be a 21 point, backups in to start the 4th quarter, cake walk. If it's even close we should be concerned. If we lose, I'd fire Philbin...
1972 era uniform or nothing.
/Thread
They had 3 downs and 2 timeouts with the best goal line runner in the league and a ****ing yard to gain. Bevell should be fired and never allowed...
Worst playcall I've ever seen. Nothing comes close, nothing excuses it. You have a guy built for the goal line and 1 yard to gain, with 3 cracks...
I'm still ****ing sick over that playcall. Run it, call timeout, run it, call timeout and run it again. Throwing it in that situation is the...
This thread is proof why we can't have nice things.
Tony Dungy would... ....that gay kid though, he's too much of a distraction.
I used to have my "Post of the Day" award, in my siggy. I got asked to kindly remove it because it was causing angst and bitterness.
Extend Philbin? Why? I think this team is doing every despite it's head coach and defensive coordinator. I'd fire them both unless they made it...
Dan Marino went 60+%, 4,700+ yards and 44 TD's in 1986...the team was 8-8. Dude had the 2nd best statistical season in league history, numbers...
I totally disagree with the "they are the best team in the NFL" comment. Their quarterback has turned inconsistent and can be had with a great...
Philbin isn't going anywhere, barring an epic collapse. I think the talent won't allow anything epic to happen. I think we have 11-12 win talent,...
Dude completes 76% of his passes, has a rating of 114.8, 2 TDs, no interceptions and we win a big game and we have complainers.
No.
How many times does this ****ing idiot have to **** up and then fix it before we realize he is just a **** up? Honestly. How ****ing DENSE does...
Joe Philbin everyone. Some of us are not surprised. The ****ing idiot shouldn't have been hired to begin with, let alone given another season...
I he doesn't work out (Tannehill) then I want to tank and draft Marcus Mariota. Love his game, leadership. Keep Winston the **** away from this...
He is certified horse ****. The fact he is still on this roster is all you need to know about this teams chances...and he's not just on the roster...
I can't look at the schedule and find 6 wins, I just can't. At this point, I'm leaning towards hoping for disaster. Rebuild it right.
I want blood, I'd fire him BUT for the sake of tanking, I'd keep him and let the thing spiral into the abyss.
Yes, poor coaching. Your team reflects it's coach. This team has come out FLAT for 2 straight weeks. Unprepared. Poor clock management. Poor play...
Jimmy Wilson surprised me, I thought he was horse **** yesterday.
My thoughts? Wow.
i want to see better finish. Touchdowns instead of field goals. Field goals instead of drives flaming out 5 yards away from field goal range. It...
It's all up to the offense. We must match the Patriots scoring early in hope that the heat wears their defense down and our defense gets stronger...
We are too deep at DE. I don't like Shelby at all but the staff appears to like him.
I remember having this much hope and wild eyed enthusiasm. Then I watched the last decade of Dolphins football. - Ryan Tannehill has a great...
So tired of the deep ball bull****. I can't wait for Wallace to go away so we don't have this ****ing distraction anymore. Fix the ****ing run...
When Gus Malzahn and Jim Harbaugh are potentially out there I don't understand any fascination with Bill Cowher. He is so far out of the game....
That doesn't look like Aaron Rodgers.
I have the same opinion on Dion Jordan as I do with every draft pick, they deserve at LEAST 3 seasons before anything is said. And while I'm on...
Has a Lamar Gordon stench to it.
His rookie year was wiped out by poor coaching and the fact he was injured. Here we are, 2 weeks into the exhibition season of year two and he's...
Did you take extra hyperbole with your coffee today? What a ****ing rubbish post.
$20.00 for exhibition games? I wish I still cared that much.
People worrying about the cost of Ryan Tannehill's next contract are missing the point. We should all be crossing fingers and toes that we MUST...
Yes, because there were multiple Pro Bowl centers available but Hickey said to himself "what can we do to get worse". Does your whining ever cease?
I like hearing that the defense looks good. I don't know if I trust anything Coyle says though. The offense will struggle, again. We have a...
I can agree with this, especially from a personal level. I've NEVER had such little interest, seriously. I grew up in a time when Dolphins...
If any of it is true, and Mike Pouncey WAS involved with any sort of assault, you waive his *** the moment you confirm it. If it's on a security...
I'm so ****ing tired of "he can't hit the deep ball" bull****. When he's protected the team wins and he is very very good, the numbers and results...
And **** the bed against inferior opponents. The whole thing should have been blown apart. The only reason we we 8-8 is because of Ryan...
If he is correct, the entire thing gets burnt to the ground and we start again. I don't WANT that to happen of course but it would be better than...
Should have handed him the keys when we had the chance.
I saw it, laughed, commented and moved on. Power rankings are rubbish. Power rankings on the first week of July are total rubbish. I'll never...
This is the truest truth ever truthed.
They can't get to a Super Bowl because they don't wear our dark colours? They wear all whites at home during day games because it offers a...
If our quarterback is close to a Pro Bowl level (something I think could happen), our defense improves (I don't have high hopes because of the...
Seriously. Who looks at this and says "yes, that is the correct thing to do". I hope they get torn apart in the media.
For a long time it was #1 with my Boston Bruins being 2nd and the Oakland A's being a "there is no other sports on" #3. The last half dozen...
I have no issue with who but where.... The following two picks were traded, there was a run on defensive backs coming, and the quarterbacks were...
I have to disagree. The NHL playoffs are the best in sports, easily. Nothing is like them. NFL playoff games feel pretty similiar to a regular...
I think he'll be the best player in the World by the time he's 22. Yes, better than Crosby. He has all the tools.
Bring it.
Keith isn't even their "match up" dman. Oduya and Hjalmarsson are the match up pair, taking on the opponents best lines. Weber and Chara are on...
I hope it's 114.
The NHL Network makes the NFL Network look like HBO. If it wasn't for Kathryn Tappen the NHL Network would have nothing to offer.
And now the REAL season begins.
Good. The less "short week" games the better.
A running back that can protect the passer and catch passes. What a novel ****ing concept.
And if the ball is not PERFECT he isn't going up to get it.
His "deep ball issues" were am easy way for people to ignore the issues the team had and continue their decade long "blame the quarterback" dog...
Thanks for the video. That's a lot of carnage to get to the same conclusion, the offensive line ****ing sucked. So did the coaching.
There is a linebacker problem but I believe it's just that, a linebacker problem, not a linebackerS problem. Wheeler is fine, he had a rough...
Revisionist history. Kaepernick at #15 would have been an epic reach and because of that, the Tannehill/Kuechly comparable is off the table....
Let me understand this... Ross wants to do a 400 million dollar renovation to a building that is close to obsolete. A renovation that would...
Those are the worst uniforms in the league. Even the Jags "ran out of paint" helmets can not top this abomination.
Bosa was a good ****ing player. Injuries sabotaged his career. Kumerow? Yah, he was total horse ****.
I'm in Canada, thankfully I don't have to watch ESPN. Besides, I'd rather watch hockey than hear anything related to this franchise. Wake me up...
But, he's a big meany!
Yes, because hiring the "nice guy" (see: Philbin, Joe) has got us a long way. I don't care how much of an ******* Harbaugh is or appears to be,...
If he didn't read it, how does he know what it says?
You don't do a lot of research, do you?
Dude, stop it. I understand loving your favourite team but you are seriously stretching now. This team can do no wrong in your eyes apparently....
Everything is fine, all teams run like this....
Thing is, after about 6 weeks we all knew Cam was toast. Philbin seems to have this air of invisibility. Everything bounces off and he just...
The franchise is a dumpster fire.
Nothing to see here, everything is fine... Even when they do the correct thing, they do it wrong.
You are not allowed to come here and speak the truth. Everything in the organization is fine. Nothing to see here. We have a winning culture...
Stop making sense. IF you call this what it is, a ****ty mess that makes this organization look like a half assed outfit (which it is) you are...
What a ****ty mess. Ross should have fired everyone.
If by "scapegoat" you mean, coach his team to under performance then yes, he may end up being the scapegoat. You don't have "scapegoats" if you...
He takes a lot of **** around here but I thought he was pretty good last season. Sure, he leaves some platys out there but he is at WORST a pretty...
Why will it be messy? He will either sign a mutually beneficial, multi-year contract, get tagged and get a one year deal or be able to walk. No...
I think you can believe all of them.
Thomas' interception, easily. Such a relief to beat those *******s.
ONly if he switch to guard or tackle.
Agreed. He will never sell though so all we can hope for is he falls *** backward into success, or we all sit around and wait for him to die, like...
LOL! Well played.
Like I said in the other thread, if a healthy Tannehill gets benched for a SINGLE snap in favour of Matt Moore, I'm done. Wake me when Joe...
Philbin is looking for a scape goat, in February. Should have fired the non de-script ******* when they had the chance. IF we bench a healthy...
I see now that Ireland is gone your passive aggressive approach has moved onto other targets.
I know. And to be as "overrated" as the Seahawks the Dolphins have to win a playoff game and make a strong push in the divisional round.
He said I "overrated" another team. I was discussing the World champion Seattle Seahawks. The team that just dismantled the best passing...
So, missing the playoffs by ****ting the bed against inferior teams to blow a chance at MAKING the playoffs (in year 2 of the system overhaul) is...
The fact people can watch yesterdays Super Bowl and think the Dolphins are close is laughable, at BEST. The Seahawks are better at every single...
If he plays over 500 snaps next year, gets double digit sacks and makes a massive impact will everyone shut up? Jeff Ireland's biggest mistake?...
He was. Unfortunately he was not the ONLY problem.
I believe "burn it with fire" was his opinion.
So.... Joe Philbin was in control of the 53 man roster in 2014 (according to rumours) and that pushed a few candidates away. He decided to skip...
I am laughing at Dolphin fans disregarding some new Buc fans coming here and consoling us. Think about what we ALL would be doing if someone had...
That's what I was trying to say. I'm having a tough time expressing myself correctly today because I am so ****ing enraged at the Hickey hiring.
Yet, he did not take the time to go to the Senior Bowl because he was hiring a ****ing crony to be his LB coach. I don't want to be right but I...
Accept Dolphin fans. It's always the quarterbacks fault.
We could have had a few more, if he attacked the ****ing ball in the air. Diva.
Their drafts were mediocre but they have had a rubbish team for years. If I am honest, I don't care if he drafted a dozen Pro Bowlers, what was...
#hireland
Everything is fine, it's just the media chicken littles trying to get hits.
Considering we were 8-6, with Buffalo (and a 3rd string QB) and a bad Jets team left on the schedule? 10-6.
If something is successful 99.6% of the time it is pointless. I love the idea of getting rid of it, it will do nothing but add excitement. I'd...
In a league where rebuilds (unless you are the Browns or Raiders) routinely take 2-3 years, winning one playoff game per DECADE is unacceptable....
You hit rock bottom when you are wishing you had not fired the GM who you had wanted fired for 2 years. #hireland
I've been tweeting it for a few hours. May as well try it at this point. If someone had told me a month ago I'd miss him I would have questioned...
Yes. When you need one win to make the playoffs and lose is astoundingly ugly fashion to two inferior teams and miss the playoffs that is a...
I thought it was all media bull**** and the organization was just fine? When ENOUGH media people say the same damn thing that is usually smoke...
Everything is fine, the organization is in great shape, all the **** we are hearing is a media creation. I have a bridge to sell you. This team...
Gaine will get the job, PERFECT. Ireland gets fired and Aponte and Philbin get their puppet. This organization is basically being run by...
We win 10 games, make the playoffs and lock down the left tackle spot for a few years if Albert is on this team. I'll surrender a 2nd rounder for...
We deserve it, honestly. When we start being well run, doing smart things and being relevant the media will find a new target. The media did...
You are acting like the moderators on this board are doing things secretly to get rid of things that certain people say... Why would they do it...
As the "some guy" in question I feel I must comment. I was not hostile, at all. I stated facts, and the facts are if you get off topic (hoisting...
Don't worry, everything is fine. It's just the media being liars or trying to create stories.
I did not bring this up for debate. I brought it up as an educated opinion. I did not lose it, I commented what I would do if I was a moderator....
I'm anti-theist, I'm probably not the person to be having this argument. That said, discussing how a player thinks and acts is speculative, no...
I'm not a Moderator, but keep religion OUT of this argument. It has no place on this section of this board, ever.
I'd argue this team needs: 4 starting offensive lineman (2 tackles and 2 guards), depth along the offensive line. A chain mover at running...
The problem is, EVERYONE is saying the same thing. Dawn Aponte is clearly angling herself into running this football team, everything that comes...
That does not fill me with confidence.
Jimmy had him for four years, at the tail end of his career (in his last season, he was cooked, he had nothing left). Do you recall the...
Never heard of the guy. What I'm reading I do like. Tireless worker, always looking to get better, smart, well thought of in league circles....
If we end promoting Brian Gaine, Aponte and Philbin will be pulling the strings, it's Wanny/Spielman all over again. If it happens I hope Ryan...
No. We have few positions of strength but I think edge rushers is one of them.
It's coveted, until the potential new GM finds out he can't fire his head coach.
Dave ****ing Wannstedt, it's not even close.
I loathe your stand on IReland and I'm ****ing tired of arguing with you but holy ****, that is THE funniest thing I've seen in a long time. Spit...
Not enough.
And then forcing his new GM to take a head coach he did not hire. A head coach who looks more and more incompetent as each day passes.
Thanks for stopping by ARodg....you've been a great "out of town" poster all year, I hope you stick around. That said, and not trying to sound...
Philbin should be begging Aponte to stay, I believe she is the reason Philbin will retain his job. If she goes, Philbin is alone. It will be Jeff...
He will renegotiate that deal and get it to around $2 million. Either that or he has to move his family elsewhere, for the same money and the same...
Ah yes, another year of you telling us how great your binky is, and that 8-8 means we are "close".
Silver doesn't know **** all, no one does. The only guy who knows what's going to happen is Ross.
If his job is to keep fans in touch with the team then why do we have prehistoric media policies? Just another guy who has a great paper resume...
So now it's acceptable for a GM to have a horrible draft and a head coach not to play to win games? Jesus ****ing Christ, you'll go to any...
The Steelers had a rough year up front, they just fired their offensive line coach. Some teams take action, others sit and hope.
They had "problems" that every team has, they got old and capped out and needed a rebuild. That is not unusual. What is unusual is a GM being...
It now appears nothing is going to happen so you can continue to stand on your soap box, banging your drum, telling us ALL how correct you were?...
We are a ****ing laughing stock. Ross is doing more damage to this franchise than Wannstedt did, he is destroying it with loyalty to idiots. We...
And we can all celebrate your binky returning. WOOHOO! Mediocrity for all! **** am I glad it's hockey season so I can forget I love this ****ty...
I would have fired him via text message.
Only if he has written down on a cue card.
Yet, people don't want change. They want "stability".
We need a General Manager, someone who, like you said is a talent evaluator. She's a mathematician, they don't draft well.
Coyle's *** isn't on fire? Have you been skipping posts? I've had him in my sights for a year. He's a buffoon. My list of firing targets? 1.)...
Why are we promoting from within a failed regime? Steve Ross is an idiot. I don't care that he's a billionaire, stupid people can make money....
Big difference between "embarrassing" and "painful". The 1985 AFC championship game is most painful. I wept. It started my life long hatred for...
Tannehill needs to work on his deep ball, I'm the biggest Tannehill guy and I know he has to do this. He will. He will work in the offseason and...
For a guy as athletic as Wallace, he appears to have the vertical leap of a 90 year old woman. The next time he gets up and attacks a ball in the...
And Wannstedt kept his ****ing job. I'm getting the same feeling now.
You've done EXACTLY what I've been doing, comparing this meltdown to the 2002 team. What should have been done? Wannstedt should have been fired...
Wow....what a douche.
You mean the guys signed and drafted by the man you have unshakable faith in? Those same players? You can't blame the players and support the GM...
We can't have anyone insulting your binky.
I'll keep the folks who do the work behind the scenes. Anyone involved with football operations should get a pink slip.
It's gotten to the point where I wish they would.
We won't get a GM who is worth a damn if he is forced to retain Philbin. We'll get a puppet (who Philbin and Aponte will control) or a retread...
We have the Ireland gems, Jamar Taylor and Will Davis waiting in the wings!
Yup, blaming Tannehill again. This board is ****ing hilarious. Ignore the Oline, horrid play calling, no running game, defense tanking at the...
Not for me. I want blood. It's December 2002, all over again. Should have cleaned house then, failed and plummeted into irrelevance.
We won't find a decent GM candidate who will be willing to not hire his "guy" to be coach. I think Steve Ross love's Philbin so much that he will...
I wanted Wannstedt fired in 2002, after blowing home field and a playoff spot by gagging. That team SHOULD have competed for a Super Bowl. They...
If they did, Ireland would have had his name in the Ring of Honor by now.
Not enough. Everyone should be fired. Rebuild the front office from the ground up.
I wonder if the Ireland/Philbin supporters, the blind followers were the same one's who supported and had blind faith in Dave Wannstedt in...
I actually don't hold the Jets game against Tannehill. Yes, he missed the deep ball to Wallace. It was the only one we tried (OC failure). He...
And if Philbin can not do what is necessary (why hasn't at LEAST Turner been fired?) then he is not head coaching material. He is too loyal to his...
He had two straight rough games. You do realize that he is the ONLY reason we were in the position to play our way into the playoffs? Despite...
They should be better.
Ellerbe and Wheeler are too expensive to be back ups. Wheeler is alright, he was sabotaged by having a the worst middle linebacker in the league...
Everyone fired yet? No? Carry on.
He is KILLING the staff, and rightfully so.
Blow it up, from a front office perspective. Hire a GM and let him decide on everything.
He's already taken too long. Fire them all, nuke it from orbit, just to be sure.
